Make Climate Count this School Year

(3BL Media / theCSRfeed) September 13, 2011 - Summer's over and students are heading back into the classroom. This school year Climate Counts continues its mission of motivating companies to significantly improve their climate leadership... and we need your help. 

The extreme weather events from this summer—droughts, wildfires, flooding, tornadoes, hurricanes—have driven home the importance of climate action.   To make sure companies know you think climate counts, download our free iPhone App today—and send the free App to anyone you know who cares about climate leadership. Our App makes climate smart purchasing easier by tracking which companies are taking action and which are stuck. Students and their parents make up the largest and most important consumer groups in the country—representing hundreds of billions in spending. Together we can make a big impact!    Don't have an iPhone?  No problem.  Simply save the attached Climate Counts Pocket Guide to your computer desktop and next time you're heading out to the malls, give a quick review to see which companies are Stuck, Starting or Striding!     Companies that are serious in their climate leadership efforts include:
  Nike - 87 points Timberland* - 86 points Hewlett-Packard - 85 points General Electric - 78 points L'Oreal - 76 points UPS - 76 points    * Climate Counts Industry Innovator partner   All the best for a safe and happy school year, and remember: climate-friendly shopping is a year-round commitment.   Yours, The Climate Counts Team Follow us on Twitter Like us on Facebook
